Pressure

Explanation:

Pressure is a measure of force per unit area.

Pressure is defined as the force exerted on a body across a unit area. The unit of pressure is N/m² or Pascal.

                Pressure = \frac{Force}{Area}

The more the force acting on a body the more the pressure felt. A small surface area and a large force increases pressure on a body.

it is right to say that pressure is proportional to force but inversely proportional to area.

How could the survivors about starting a fire?
joja [24]

Answer:

The ancient Greeks believed that fire was one the four basic elements that composed all things in the universe. In the mythology of virtually every culture, fire is a sacred substance that gives life or power. Fire is not, in fact, a substance. When you gaze at the leaping flames of a campfire, you’re observing not an object, but a process – a chemical reaction. It’s the same chemical reaction that occurs when a cut apple left on the counter turns brown, when silver tarnishes or when an iron nail rusts.

That process is oxidation: combining oxygen with another substance. The defining difference between a fire and your half-eaten apple is speed: fire is an oxidation process that happens very fast, so that light, heat and sound are released — often with enough force and majesty to justify the ancients’ reverence.The sudden release of energy causes temperatures to rise, sometimes by thousands of degrees. And it also results in smoke, the toxic waste of fire’s leftovers.
